Tottenham Hotspur are pushing for the signature of Barcelona star Ansu Fati, who is on the radar of Manchester United.
According to a report by Fichajes, Tottenham Hotspur will step up their interest in Ansu Fati. The 20-year-old’s future has been uncertain for a while now, and Spurs are willing to go all out for his signature. However, they will face competition from Manchester United, who have been linked with the Barcelona forward for a while now.
Fati joined Barcelona back in the summer of 2021 and has come up the ranks at the club. He burst into the limelight after impressive performances for the first team. The 20-year-old became a regular in the first team in no time. However, injuries have derailed his progress.

Fati is keen on staying at Barcelona. However, if his situation does not improve, the 20-year-old will be forced to look for options elsewhere. The Spain international has featured in 41 matches in the ongoing season but has been on the pitch for just over 1500 minutes. He has contributed with seven goals and three assists.
Tottenham Hotspur have been monitoring his situation of late. And, Spurs are keen on having him in their ranks. The London club have a complicated ongoing situation. They are looking for their new manager and have already started planning for the upcoming transfer window.
The future of Richarlison and Harry Kane is uncertain, the duo could leave the London club in the summer. And, Spurs have started preparing for the near future. The profile of Anus Fati intrigues Tottenham because the 20-year-old can play as a striker as well as a winger.
He could solve their problems for the present as well as the future. The London club are willing to break the bank and make him their most expensive signing ever. However, they will face competition from Manchester United.
